Directions:Blanch ramen in boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain thoroughly.

Meanwhile, heat canola oil and sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot and saute until softened, about 2 minutes.

Deglaze skillet with soy sauce, then add noodles, tossing to combine. Add more soy sauce and/or oil if noodles start to clump together. Stir in cilantro right before serving.

Makes 4 servings.

Really easy side dish. You might notice that there doesn't seem to be very much cilantro in my picture. I have been using it a lot lately (it goes really well with all the citrus dishes I've been making), so I didn't have the whole ½ cup. Next time I will definitely use the whole amount, as I love love love cilantro.

I made this to go with my Asian Turkey Meatballs with Sweet Peanut Sauce. The saltiness of the noodles balanced out the sweet of the meatballs perfectly.
